Multi-National Oil Trading Group Goes With Aspect Enterprise Solutions For CTRM Commodities Trade And Risk Platform
(PRWEB) May 19, 2014
The three subsidiaries, Petro Singapore Trading PTE, PS Trading SA and PS Oil PTE, a group of petroleum products and petrochemicals trading companies, has chosen AspectCTRM SE (Standard Edition) from Aspect Enterprise Solutions as its backbone solution for trading and risk. In addition to mainstream trade, risk and operations management functionality the system will also be integrated with the group’s back-office accounting system.
AspectCTRM was first brought to the group’s attention by a team member who had used the solution with a previous firm. Soon it became obvious to senior staff that Aspect’s Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Cloud-delivered application offered the key tools needed for the global team’s growth.
“From a trading and risk perspective alone AspectCTRM does everything we want and more, and Aspect demonstrated that they were able to deploy and implement their system in a short time, compared with other vendors,” said the group’s CFO. “AspectCTRM is flexible and we were able to engineer an accounting interface with the GIT WinEUR general ledger system relatively quickly.”
Another crucial element in the trading group’s choice of AspectCTRM was the future addition of new functionality. For example, Aspect recently added enhanced functionality for managing product movement by railcar. This is one more step in the continual evolution of the product line according to Aspect’s EMEA director of sales Yags Savania.
“Our aim is to build in the functionality our individual customers need to run their businesses more efficiently, and so continuously improve and expand our systems,” he says. “We also want to leverage the success of more niche back-office and ledger solutions. They are a perfect complement to our own trade and risk management software and we have proven time and time again the ease with which it integrates with third-party systems.”
Petro Singapore PTE Trading, PS Trading SA and PS Oil PTE are involved in physical trading, financing, risk management, oil derivative trading, hedging, storage and transportation with a strong focus on the Caspian, Black and Mediterranean Sea regions.

Advanced Realty Team Announces “Under Water, Over Water” Home Buying Program
(PRWEB) April 27, 2014
Selling a Tampa Bay home where the value has fallen below the balance of the mortgage became easier and more rewarding yesterday when Advanced Realty Team announced its new “Under Water, Over Water” home buying special.
“We have offered to pay cash for homes in foreclosure and under water for some time now,” said George Beardsley, broker-president of Advanced. “What we have added is that we will now give the seller two tickets for a cruise in an ocean-view state room,” he said.
Advanced Realty Team is a real estate boutique that actually buys houses quickly and charges no real estate commission. Most brokerage firms “list” a house and charge a commission when a third party buys the house.
“And of course conditions apply,” Beardsley said.
“In the pilot program, we will only be buying houses in north Pinellas and southwest Pasco counties,’ he said. The houses also must be in reasonably good condition and early in the foreclosure process,” he said.
ABOUT ADVANCED REALTY TEAM
George and Maryan Beardsley, two former stock brokers, founded Advanced in 1996 after spending several years working for a national franchise real estate firm and gradually doing a larger portion of their business buying and selling homes for themselves and financing sales for other Realtors. They entered the real estate business the hard way, owing a home in Boca Raton Florida within a mile of the site for a planned garbage burning incinerator.
The Realtor they hired suggested owner financing which Maryan and George said sounded “stupid and scary.” But having little choice they sold and held the mortgage and the more they learned about creative financing, the more it seemed to be an important tool, especially when it is difficult to sell houses.
Eventually the buyer of their home refinanced and the Beardsleys received the full amount of cash for the sale, at top price and during a period when no one had been able to sell. “That really got our attention and we left stocks, commodities and bonds for real estate,” George said. The firm offers a number of ways of buying houses fast and lately has been offering affordable homes programs, using homes bought as rentals and rent to own homes.
George Beardsley holds the U.S. Patent Office Trade Mark for the Famous Rent to Own on Steroids Program™ where all rent paid in the entire first year becomes down payment and the tenant-buyer can earn a mortgage by making 12 consecutive monthly payments on time and maintaining the home as though they already owned it. This program has been modified to be Dodd-Frank compliant.
In the last year, the firm has added a Internet marketing division. Advanced also offers a service for local merchants where they guarantee the local firms’ website will be on the first page of Google.

PIRA Energy Group’s Weekly Natural Gas, Power and Coal Market Recap for the Week Ending April 13th, 2014
New York, NY (PRWEB) April 16, 2014
NYC-based PIRA Energy Group reports that Russian supply cutoff via Ukraine is unlikely to happen. While In the U.S., the first EIA report of the injection season revealed a paltry 4 BCF build. Specifically, PIRA’s analysis of natural gas market fundamentals has revealed the following:
Russian Supply Cutoff via Ukraine Unlikely To Happen
The longer term implications of a Russian supply cutoff via Ukraine are so significant that PIRA still believes that it is unlikely to happen, even if now would be the ideal time – low seasonal gas demand and limited risk to Western Europe – to trigger it. If Russia’s mega-investment in pipeline gas to Asia were already built, that would be one thing, but the broader plans for such a grid outlined in this week’s Gazprom Investment Day presentation do not envision such a system until late 2019 at the earliest. The longstanding marriage between European gas demand and Russian gas export revenues is very much alive and well, and with it, a marital compromise will have to be reached with regard to how Ukraine’s debts will be paid in the future.
Paltry Stock Build
The first EIA report of the injection season revealed a paltry 4 BCF build, splitting the uprights between the five-year average 9 BCF build and the year-ago 25 BCF draw. Nevertheless, the indicated figure was well below consensus estimates that called for a build some 10 BCF higher, and was even below the low end of the market’s range. With the report’s lowball number unmasking inherently more bullish underlying fundamentals, the NYMEX prompt contract rallied ~15¢ on the news, erasing early-session losses on its way to an overall day-on-day gain of ~7¢ by settlement.
Jump in Price Volatility Is Emerging in Three Major Markets
In the three major regional gas markets around the world, a noticeable jump in price volatility is emerging after several years of near dormancy. In North America, higher prices are being driven by low storage coming out of winter and in Europe, lower prices are being driven by high storage coming out of winter. In Asia, second quarter spot prices have dropped roughly 20% over the past 90 days and it is all too clear that buyers of choice have replaced buyers of necessity during the seasonal dip in Asian gas demand.
NYC-based PIRA Energy Group reports that coal pricing is benefiting from strength in natural gas markets. While in the Europe, discussions on pricing of French nuclear power appears stalled. Specifically, PIRA’s analysis of electricity and coal market fundamentals has revealed the following:
Coal Pricing Benefiting from Strength in Natural Gas Markets
Seaborne coal prices moved higher across the board last week, although weaker dry bulk freight rates gave more upside momentum to FOB pricing points than CIF ones. The threat of Russia cutting off gas to and through Ukraine grabbed headlines last week, sending NBP gas prices higher. The oil market also ticked up last week, and coal pricing followed suit. Coal specific fundamentals remain weak overall, with robust supply and sluggish demand growth.
The Costs of the French Nuclear Power Being Discussed
The discussion around the price of the ARENH (Regulated access to historical nuclear electricity) appears to have stalled. Set to be released by the end of March 2014, the decree updating the price of EDF’s nuclear power allocated to its competitors appears to be slated to be published only during the summer, leaving a big regulatory vacuum for large volumes of electricity at a time when the French electricity supply/demand balances are looking considerably bearish.

PIRA Energy Group’s Weekly Oil Market Recap for the Week Ending April 13th, 2014
New York, NY (PRWEB) April 15, 2014
NYC-based PIRA Energy Group believes that Asian oil markets remain supported. In the U.S., stocks built. In Japan, consumption tax increase depresses product demands. Specifically, PIRA’s analysis of the oil market fundamentals has revealed the following:
Asian Oil Markets Remain Supported
Oil prices should find increasing support moving forward as the worst of the spring crude stock building is almost behind us. Asian gasoline cracks should improve seasonally. Gasoil cracks should hold up with ongoing turnarounds and then higher demand, especially into 3Q.
Consumption Tax Increase Depresses Japanese Product Demands
Total commercial stocks rose 4.6 MMBbls due to a 4.9 MMBbl build in crude. Finished product stocks were modestly lower. Gasoil stocks drew for the eleventh straight week. All the major product demands fell back, as an increase in the consumption tax went into effect April 1st. That increase is likely to keep demands abnormally soft for the next couple of weeks and produce adverse demand comparisons to last April.
A Closer Look at Canadian Shale Liquids Potential
It is becoming increasingly likely that the next location of significant shale liquids growth will be Western Canada. A closer look at resource potential suggests that production volumes will substantially grow. There will be obstacles including cost pressures, water management, takeaway infrastructure limits and environmental concerns that will slow progress but none of these appear to be showstoppers.
Propane Stock Building Has Commenced
U.S. stock building occurred at a faster pace than last season, but propane inventory comparisons will remain far lower year-on-year. Propane exports will grow during the course of the year as new terminal capacity is added. Near term ethane usage is affected by a relatively high level of cracker downtime. The key development is the sharp escalation in spot international freight costs which is adversely impacting trade economics.
Ethanol Prices Plummet
U.S. ethanol prices tumbled the week ending April 4 as plant output increased sharply, enabling stocks to build for the second consecutive week. At the same time, prices had reached a high enough premium over gasoline that companies reduced the percentage of ethanol-blended fuel to the lowest level in about eight weeks.

Temporary Staff Services in Australia Industry Market Research Report Now Updated by IBISWorld
Melbourne, Australia (PRWEB) April 08, 2014
Prior to the global financial crisis, the Temporary Staff Services industry benefited from an outsourcing trend, a strong economy with low unemployment and a strong appetite for labour from the Mining division amid booming commodities prices. According to IBISWorld industry analyst Alen Allday, “while the industry was flat in 2008-09, it suffered in 2009-10 due to rising unemployment and weaker demand for new temporary labour positions.” However, the Australian economy weathered the global downturn relatively well as growth in the housing sector stabilised and mining output strongly increased. Many other sectors within the economy returned to growth, fuelling demand for new staff and industry services. Industry revenue returned to growth in 2010-11 as economic growth drove demand for temporary staff. A weaker Mining division and economic uncertainty in 2012-13 and 2013-14 led to industry revenue declines for these years.
In the five years through 2013-14, industry revenue is expected to increase at an annualised 0.5% to $ 18.5 billion. This includes a forecast decline of 3.5% in 2013-14. “The low revenue growth of the past five years has been accompanied by low profit margins and industry employment declines,” says Allday. However, enterprise numbers have increased at due to the low barriers to entry. The industry exhibits a low level of market share concentration, with Skilled Group Limited the only player holding a significant share of industry revenue.
Employment outsourcing has become well established in Australia over the past two decades. As a result, temporary staff services are expected to grow only modestly over the next five years. This is also due to the mature nature of the industry. The mining and energy sectors are expected to remain key growth drivers for the industry, despite weaker global growth hindering commodity demand and causing prices to decline. Further, with the Mining division being a relatively small employing sector, its growth will only have a limited effect on the Temporary Staff Services industry.
